Rumi, Day by Day by Maryam Mafi is an anthology containing poems on topics including friendship, love, spirituality, and life in general. Each poem is very short, none of them more than ten lines long. Each poem is also numbered, with there being 365 total poems in the collection, typically two to a page. The poems are on a variety of topics and ideas, yet they all have an identifiable style.

I liked this poetry anthology. I’ve recently been getting into poetry more, and I’m glad to add this book to my collection. I enjoyed most of the poems, with a select few standing out as my favorites. The only poems I actually disliked in this book were those about God and religion / spirituality. There was a fair amount of poems about those topics, and I just personally couldn’t relate to them. Overall, I enjoyed this poetry collection, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes poetry!
